Best Japanese food near Okinawa City, Okinawa Prefecture, Japan

November 27, 2019 Alice Mieles

Reviews on Japanese food in Okinawa City, Okinawa Prefecture, Japan. Long a popular destination for Japanese travelers looking for a relaxing beach break, Okinawa is gaining international popularity. Coral reefs provide great snorkeling and diving spots, but if you prefer to see beautiful fish without getting wet, Okinawa also has a fine aquarium. The ancient forests around the city offer a chance to view rare flora and fauna.

Banjutei

Reviewed By ALiEN2108

We were returning from Tiger beach and at around 15:00-16:00 most of the restaurants were still closed. Found Banjutei on TripAdvisor and since we like Soba we stopped there. Arriving there, I would never stop without TripAdvisor, since you can't even see it's a restaurant from outside :) Parking is available.Prompt serving, nice prices and yummy soba! I can only recommend it!

This was a surprise find because we went past this restaurant on our way to the aquarium. On the way back, we were thinking if we would like to try it. We saw the number of cars outside and it seems rather popular so we just parked and headed in. Thank god for the wife for spotting this! The steam pork was so good! Ordered the set and that pork sushi in the pic. We also ordered their fried noodles and this was good enough for 2. Oh boy, this place is surely one great place for dinner! Price is reasonable and service was fast. They have table and counter seats. English menu available too. I would highly recommend you to come!

Reviewed By BestLambert

Just went here with my family the other day. We really enjoyed our meal.Ordering from the tablet at our desk was pretty easy. The service was nice and quick. The staff spoke a bit English.We tried many kinds of sushi: salmon, scallop, shrimp and eel. All of them tasted good. We also ordered fried fish head and fried squid. The squid was so nice that we ordered another plate.We had 21 plates in total and it cost only around 4,500 JPY.

Herb&Grill Hanahana

Reviewed By David H

Best buffet style restaurant in Okinawa so far. Large selection of Wesrern and Japanese dishes. Good food, well presented and great friendly service. This restaurant is located in Alivila Hotel in Yomitan Okinawa, one of the nicest hotels here and has pool side and ocean views. The day I went the restaurant never completely filled up and was peaceful and a nice place to sit and relax.

Kinpaginpa

Reviewed By BUGI_70

Really nice and cozy izikaya. English menu available and also English pretty well spoken. If you only want ramen they have a small separated room dedicated to ramen consumers. Tatami and tables are available. The food is delicious and the service is friendly. Close to the American Village but not a touristic spot.I enjoyed my dinner a lot!Don't forget to park ONLY at the AEON parking cause other parking lots aren't for Kinpaginpa customers!!

Hanaorisoba

Reviewed By RNDave

I've been there with my friends on a travel last summer. The place is very easy to find, basically on the main road in front of the sea. The inner design is very simple and the place is mostly crowded, better for a dinner with friends than for couples I think. Food is really good, portions are generous and prices are low, definitely worth a try. Menu is also in English and there is some personnel who speaks English, which is not quite common in Okinawa and very useful for Europeans such as myself. The inner design, the noise and the density of tables deserve a 3/5, but the food and the English bonus deserve a 5/5. We enjoyed it very much, definitely worth a try!

So glad that Sakae Ryoriten is here! We live in Uruma city which we often here people complaining about the lack of good restaurants around this area. Sakae has the right atmosphere with very attentive staff and they present Okinawa food to a more refine standard. Our guests were all very impressed and happy.

Ryukyu no Ushi

Yakiniku Ryukyu no Ushi is the place in Okinawa for Yakiniku, or grilled meat!The secret to its popularity is of course the tasty meat. Locally-produced wagyu beef has the perfect flavor, and we also serve non-brand beef selected simply for its high quali

Reviewed By alexv59

Easily the best beef I have ever had. We tried the top quality 100g for 6k yen and a set from 5k. Everything was amazing. I would suggest as other did before me buy 1 set and meat. Don't buy the cheapest and probably don't buy the top. It was just as good the assorted version of it. Yes the top one is melting in your mouth but they were all delicious.
